Thanks so much everyone for your super feedback - THANK YOU - Your honesty and support is so appreciated. I really am worn out and scared about how further slumps will affect me now. I really dont want to leave hubby I want to leave the PTSD.....(!) We had a good relaxing day yesterday...

Dear super people I dont know how much more of the mood swings I can take..... Has anyone ever said this to their PTSD suffering partner??? I am wondering if perhaps the carrot doesn't work - ie support perhaps the stick could - ie "I am not coping, I want us to be together and excited...

Thank you amazing ladies..... Well we won the appeal so it is confirmed that hubby isnt well enough to work we we get a tiny amount of £'s just really that goes towards petrol and 'pocket money' for hubby. He still isnt fully back from the slump - I have 20 min and then need to pick my son...

Thanks Wife Of - I called the Mental Health Team and already having waited for months they said you are now on the waiting list and you hopefully will get someone in 4 months!!! I said that we couldnt wait that long at all. We are now going to see one of the team in 2 weeks - we saw him for...

Some great advice on this thread.... I said to hubby today that it is not acceptable to talk to me how he does at times.... I am seeing a new councellor myself and she said .... If you had a child with say down syndrome you still wouldnt let them be rude to others - Dont just say its PTSD...

I just saw my post and saw that it from from 8 months ago :O( Hubby didnt not know me again on New Years Eve - He is taking anti depressants and on New Year Eve had several large alcholic drinks..... He knows he shouldnt but that didnt stop him. He is on a downer again - and had 2 bottles of...

Dear Wife Of I do hope that you are as OK - well as OK as you possibly could be My hubby was also good over Xmas - although New Years Eve he asked me "what my name was" After being together since we were 18 and now 41...... Another slump tonight after a few good days. How they can just...

Dear Spousecoping Welcome to this amazing forum and the super people on here have been the best help to me. My hubby sleepwalks and more....and I feel that we have a lot in common... My hubby is on anti depressants although I have not seen any differnce and ha has been on them for 2 years...

Great news and welcome back :O)

Hi all - I am not far from London :O)

Well We have had 2 OK days and yesterday was the best hubby had been in ages. We invitied his mum round for dinner and had a nice evening on Monday. Yesterday he did have some flashbacks while out - however he handled it and was OK. So much so that we even went to London for a small...

Freshly squeezed lemon in warm boiled water is great! Also water, spinach and banana blended into a smoothie :O) Great for colds Amethist! :tup:

Poor you KO18 - odor candles!!! Hubby bought me some clothes for Xmas - they were HORRIBLE!!! Not me at all! I took them back and of ocurse the £'s jut get used up another way - food and bills! Oh well! I saw a new counsellor Friday - It was good to talk. She said I must create some ME...

HI Darran - Thanks so much for telling me and others about the charity - I called them today too. I wondered - do you work for them? Or simply had such great results that you want to share with others? Either way its fine of cousre - just wondering....!! Thanks again and looking forward to...

Looking forward to hearing more..... I called and Sharon seemed to think that they can help hubby - asked for my email too. I did wonder as I didnt say much about why my hubby has PTSD and although she seemed very nice and helpful I got the feeling that perhaps she needed to be elsewhere and...

Amethist - I am on the edge of my seat reading this and cant wait to hear more! Amazing for you you both. I called Sharon earlier and had a chat - after a message from Darran too. They say that the charity is run by volunteers only and is all based on donations - and that the 4 day courses...

Thanks so much and I do hope that this will help others too xxx

Thanks so much Simplekindofgirl!! And you know.... I just went downstairs and did this. Thank you. He explained that his head just goes fuzzy and he doesnt know what to do for my birthday. I said thats fine we can do something together and it doesnt need to be too much - a simple...

Thanks Seeking Serenity :O) I do try my best - of course like we all do on this amazing forum :O) I am naturally a bubbly person - do TV and radio presenting a little and people say that they enjoy being around with me.However I feel that hubby wants to knock this out of me - he does things...

Yes it does Toria and I wish I had the answers for us both! I also keep hubby from the financial side of things as best I can as he just goes to pieces badly - Lack of £'s brings all of his PTSD symptoms on a great deal.... Hubbys work was separate from mine however he had to re train in...

THANKS YOU so much for your wonder support and birthday wishes too. I asked hubby how his brother was and he said "Oh we are going out for a drink next week in London" He HATES going to London. He has been a few times in the past 4 months and it has not been great - to the point of...

A good point 19Dlvr - However I think it just happened too quickly - within 3 minutes...... Something to think about however..... I am sorry to hear that your man doesn't continue with the tools - I know my hubby finds it impossible sometimes too - although we still continue to get help...

In the grand scheme of things this does sound really silly..... However its my birthday in just over a week. I can hear hubby downstairs talking to his brother.... They are talking about meeting for a drink next week - Hubby saw his other friend 2 nights ago. Last year was a special 40...
